If the photo comes thru,Has anyone any photos of the trunk and seat panel open? along time ago I saw one where the trunk swings down.This is the closest I've come with the headrest parts fitting so well.

Mike, it looks like a 57 Vette with a fin on it. What is it? Is it a resin kit, or did you mod a AMT kit, or an original MPC Vette kit? Either way, it IS lookin pretty cool!

It is a resin trans kit from Mini-Exotics. I've had it for quite some time.Ever since I saw the pic with the trunk swung down I've wanted to incorporate that feature into it.My best guess is that the Trunk

swings down,and then the top panel goes up.

The car was known as the SR-2 It was seen in red with some cones over the headlites and more recently in blue with regular lites.

I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE IS IT A CONCEPT CAR OR RACE CAR DID THEY OFFER THIS TO THE DEALERS OR ? IT IS COOL

Jon thank you so much for that.Those are the best pictures I have ever seen! It makes much more clearer the scribed lines that were on the resin kit originally. That would be great detail to open and hinge that panel to show off a gas tank.
